Just trying to get through life without looking stupid. So far it's not going too well.

Ram’s QB (potential Rookie of the Year?) Sam Bradford finally decided to do something about the mop that resided on top of his head. He met up with the crew from AXE Hair and buzzed it off.

I was just going through some pictures from last summer and saw my buzz cut. It might make a comeback this summer.

There have been quite a few AXE giveaways through this blog, but this one is the biggest yet! The 1st place winner will win 6 styling products plus 10 shampoos and conditioners. 2nd and 3rd place winners will receive samples of Buzzed Look Cream.

To enter, fill out your name and email address in the form below. A winner will be chosen at random from the valid entries. One entry per household. Valid for legal residents of the US only. Entries must be received by Saturday, February 12, 2011 at 11:59PM Pacific Standard Time. For full contest rules, please visit http://studio711.com/cs/blogs/ben/pages/33201.aspx.

When AXE contacted me and said they had three new shampoos that were unlike anything they’d done before, I was a bit skeptical. They arrived in the mail the other day and I must say they are correct. The three new flavors scents are Heat Igniting Citrus 2 in 1 Shampoo + Conditioner, Downpour Refreshing Mint Shampoo, and Zen Soothing Tea Tree Shampoo.

AXE’s ads tell you that their products lead to girls finding you irresistible. Does it work? You’ll have to try it out for yourself, but I ended up marrying one of the girls that I tested this on. For the record, out of this new batch, the mint one is her favorite.

AXE labels these as “experimental” so it’s unclear how long they’ll be around. You can find them at Wal-Mart at $4.99 for a 12-oz bottle. Give them a shot and let me know what you think!

74% of girls agree that hair is one of the first things they notice about a guy. What does your hair say about you? Axe Smooth and Sophisticated Look Shine Pomade gives long-lasting shine and control for a smooth, polished look.

I have two prize packs to give away, just in time for Father’s Day. Enter your email address in the form below (or go directly to the survey if it doesn’t work for you below.) If you are chosen, you’ll not only win Axe Shine Pomade, but you’ll also get a very nice overnight essentials bag made by Victorinox (the Swiss Army Knife people.)

It’s exciting to see more and more online media start to pop up, and now it looks like ESPN is joining the party. The Next Round – Served Up By Jim Beam will be hosted by ESPN’s Scoop Jackson. He’ll share drinks from the show’s sponsor with various actors, athletes, media personalities and comedians while talking about news, sports and pop culture.

Some of the segments will be aired during the 11pm episode of SportsCenter starting April 3 and the full episodes will be on ESPN.com starting April 4.

The internet TV movement has been largely dominated by tech oriented (ie. Revision3.) Hopefully this is the first of many solidly produced, sports related content.

Matthew Stafford might be having a rough start in the NFL, but he’s not having trouble with the ladies. He is the pitchman for the new AXE Hair campaign. He’s encouraging all of us to upload videos of us getting “hair action.” What is that? It’s when a girl moves in close and rubs her fingers through your hair. Or so they tell me. Maybe my hair is too short or maybe it’s because I need to ramp up the AXE Hair usage. Either way, you can win some great prizes by checking out AXE’s Facebook page. The prizes include free tickets to sporting events and AXE products so it’s definitely worth checking out. It’s worth noting that I was single when I started reviewing products for AXE and now I’m engaged. I’m just saying…

AXE sent me a leather kit containing their hair products and I’m giving it away. Use the contact form to send me a message containing the subject AXE. Use your real email address because that’s how I’ll contact the winner.
